The University of Veterinary and Animal Sciences (UVAS) Lahore signed two Memorandum of Understanding (MoUs) with Farm Dynamics Pakistan (Pvt) Ltd and Marta Asia (Pvt) Ltd for the promotion of climate smart agriculture tools and techniques for bringing farm efficiencies and research work of fodder crops here on Thursday.
The MoUs were separately signed by Vice-Chancellor Professor Dr Talat Naseer Pasha and Chief Executive Farm Dynamics Pakistan, Ahsan Mustafa Bajwaand and Chief Executive Matra, Asia, Anwar Ahmad Khan. The UVAS and Farm Dynamics Pakistan (FDP) will collaborate in adapting and promoting climate smart agriculture tools and techniques for bringing farm efficiencies and may extend it for the benefit of the farming community and improving rural livelihoods.
